AM04.1 - Personal Use
**Form Purpose
Use Personal Use (AM04.1) to define what should happen to depreciation and
tax credit calculations if an asset falls below a certain percentage of
business use.
This program lets you recapture depreciation, change the depreciation method
and asset life, set yearly maximum depreciation amounts, recapture tax
credits, and set maximum tax credit amounts.
**Processing Effect
If you select Y (Yes) in the Method Below Qual Percent field, you must define
an alternative depreciation method in the Method field.
You can define an alternative life for the asset, whether or not you define
an alternative depreciation method.
You can indicate whether Asset Management should depreciate any remaining
book value of an asset if it has not been fully depreciated over its asset
life.
If you select Y (Yes) in the Annual Limits field, the system opens the
Depreciation Limits form tab, and you must define depreciation limits for at
least year. You can define limits for up to 20 years.
On the Credit Tax Options tab, you can set a maximum credit tax amount to use
if the business use falls below the percentage specified in the Business Use
Percent field; you can also set another maximum tax credit amount to use if
the business use falls below the previous year's business use.
**More Information
Before using this program, you should carefully evaluate its tax implications
as they relate to your own situation.
To generate a listing of existing personal use codes, run System Setup
Listings (AM200).
